About this Cook
I have a wonderful husband and 3 beautiful boys. I am a Realtor for the Lancaster County and surrounding area. I LOVE cooking! We are blessed to be a part of a wonderful church. I lead the Women's Ministry and Worship. Cooking is a out to express my creativity. Just like the others on this website-I enjoy tweeking recipes a bit to make them "my own".
My favorite things to cook
I love making healthy, delicious, QUICK AND EASY meals.
My favorite family cooking traditions
I continue to do canning and freezing in the summertime.
My cooking triumphs
Baking is not my favorite thing to do--However, this website has made me a much better dessert maker. People think I love to bake because of the wonderful recipes I have made from the site. My banana cake is now famous!
My cooking tragedies
My husband has come a LONG way. He isn't has afraid to try new things. However, I cannot make anything with artichokes, olives, tomatoes etc. He is not a big fan a mediterranean food and I LOVE it!

Double Tomato Bruschetta
Loved this recipe! I did make it a little easier and spiced it up a bit. I used 2 cans of diced tomatoes with green chilies (drained) in substitution for the 6 romas. It was easier than cutting up the tomatoes and added a little heat to the bruschetta. I plan to add a small can of olives next time for another twist!

Super-Delicious Zuppa Toscana
This soup had incredible flavor. I was so impressed. I did like it much better than the Olive Garden verson. I also used part chicken broth and part bouillon. Worked beautifully. I also used frozen chopped spinach because I had no fresh on hand. Had it as leftovers today and is even better than the night before!

Easy Chicken Enchiladas
This was wonderful...loved that it was so easy...came together in 20 minutes. I boiled the chicken in salt water and shredded it. I added my homemade salsa (which has a small kick) and substituted black beans for pinto..I would highly recommend salsa with some heat..otherwise, I would add a shot or two of hot sauce to the filling. Excellent! The entire family loved it!
